When making a new post, I constyantly am getting parse errors for Apple news plugin caused by this plugin..
```
The following components are unsupported by Apple News and were removed:
span
span
button
span
span
button
span
span
button
span
span
button
span
span
div
```
apparently its adding the social button code to the post pre-save and when apple news plugin runs, it sees the illegal/unsupported markup.

Can this be addressed to make it work properly with apple news and similar plugins?

If you insect the HTML code of the post the only spans and button are generated by this plugin.

Thank you for the screenshot.

We are using the_content filter and not doing anything on Post pre-save.

are you sure, It is caused by Simple Social Buttons?

May I get access to wp-admin? you can give us on our support at https://wpbrigade.com/contact/

Thanks

I’m 98.5% sure its Simple Social Buttons as this inspected HTML shows:

test URL: https://www.yugioh-world.com/2017/11/18/test-post/

Its is the only button and spans used in the post once submitted.

Also of note, the hide sinmple social buttons check-box in the add post doesn’t work.

We’ll hold off on granting wp-admin access until absolutly needed.

Can you please inspect the page in the backend that shows the list of spans/buttons? here https://snag.gy/qnYt5Z.jpg

Yes, there was a bug in “hide sinmple social buttons check-box”

We just fixed it and will push in next release.
